Anyway, it sounds like a great car, especially if it is truly a fuel cell --> electric. Hydrogen, of course, still needs to be manufactured though. Easy to do, but energy intensive. And, there are still potential issues with refilling and transport of hydrogen.

I just attended an alternative fuel car show. I spoke to the reps from Mercedes Benz F-Cell about hydrogen. They expect 13 fueling stations in Califonia by 2013. Yeah, right. Sorry folks, in my opinion, hydrogen-powered vehicles are a dream. It would cost too much to create an infrastructure to support and fuel them. Currently, Mercedes Benz will only lease them for $389 a month. Forget that noise.
